[edit] Film career
[edit] Director
Sundar C. made his directorial debut through Murai Maman in 1995 and his second film was Murai Mapillai, which was also the debut film of Arun Vijay. He directed big stars Rajinikanth in Arunachalam and Kamal in Anbe Sivam. He has also worked with Karthik, Prashanth, Arjun, Sarathkumar, and Ajith.
[edit] Actor
He gave up film directing and started his acting career in 2006, in Thalai Nagaram. The film opened to a lukewarm response but later turned out to be a surprise success at the box office. In 2007, he appeared in Veerappu which turned out to be a sleeper hit too. In 2008 he starred in the hugely successful Sandai, directed by Shakti Chidambaram. but his streak of successes ended with the box-office flops Aayudham Seivom, Perumal and Thee. Average grossing Aiyantham Padai was followed in 2010 by two box-office disasters, Guru Sishyan and Vaadaa. Nagaram also bombed, in spite of garnering highly positive reviews for its good story, Vadivelu's comedy and Anuya's glamour. He recently finished work on Murattu kaalai, which is remake of a 1980 film of same name.[3]
